Can I make a page for my Alliance event?

Hi there. My alliance is hosting a cross continent hide-and-go-seek event over Easter called "Find Bunny". We are two alliances together (1 luxon 1 kurzick) with approximately 1800 members. In short, to win players must solve a riddle, figure out who the bunny is, then hunt her down to claim the prize. At first I intended to post the riddle and details solely on our forum, but wondered if it would be possible to create a simple page on wiki to help players access the riddle from in game. If someone could please let me know if this is possible, and where I could do it, I'd be most grateful. If this isn't something wiki supports, then that's fine, I'll just have to hope our forum copes with the demand over Easter :) --Angel 12:34, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

I am not sure, we allow pages for th rawr cup and other events but im still not sure :S --Shadowphoenix User-Shadowphoenix Shadow Phoenix Signet.jpg 14:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm not against that page, but you would probably be best off creating it as a subpage of the alliance leading guild's page. Maybe even a duplicate page so there's one for both alliances. Then put a prominent link on the alliance leading guild's main page. Calor Talk 15:11, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt replies. I realise it's not entirely an obvious answer, hence why I asked the question, so thank you for having a think about it. I have drafted the page I wanted to make and posted it as my user page for now (since I had nothing in there anyway). I'm not sure how to copy the content of it to a subpage of the alliance leading guild's page though...I'm still learning about how/where to make pages --Angel 16:14, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Heh :). What's the name of the head guild in both alliances? Calor Talk 16:13, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Feel free to have a look at my user page if you want to know more, and please let me know if you think the content can go on another more appropriate page :)--Angel 16:54, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Perhaps at Guild:Passionate Kiss Of Nosferatu/Find Bunny, assuming Find Bunny is the name of your event. By the way, the event sounds like fun. I hope you all enjoy it! Calor Talk 17:03, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks very much, I might do that actually. The problem is the Kurzick KISS leader guild is called something else, but I think I could manage with links and such. Thanks again :) --Angel 17:41, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
I suppose it would be allowed, but posting it here on the mainspace would bring people from outside the alliance and it can get disorganized fast. — Eloc 17:43, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to say thank you. The event was fantastic over the weekend and the participation was outstanding thanks to having the Wiki page up and running. Hats off to the official wiki :)--Angel 10:26, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

GWW on the eyes of Anet...

Does the wiki qualifies as a "Guild Wars Website" as per [1]?--Fighterdoken 02:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

It better not - "You may not modify any part of the Guild Wars Client, Server, or any part of the official Guild Wars websites." :P --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:12, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Its one of those exceptions it is but it is not...--DominatorMatrix
It may be worth asking Emily whether we do count as one, and if so, whether they would need to change their rules of conduct/our status. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 02:17, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Add a little "except our official wikis" clause, and everything's fixed. Calor Talk 04:13, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
That could fix it actually (is easier to change that document), but if the RoC were indeed applicable to this wiki (and a lot of the points are already), it could be a good thing to have in consideration for when creating policies and regulating user behavior.--Fighterdoken 05:06, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
"Guild Wars Wiki! The Official Guild Wars Wiki that anyone can edit (so long as they don't change anything)."
Aside from making that our motto, I'd say getting it cleared up weather or not GWW is officially part of the Guild Wars website would be good. Did anyone already find anything out? --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 00:46, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
Hiya guys! Thanks for pointing this out. I've passed the question along to the folks that are responsible for these documents. I'll keep you posted on what I found out. Until then, consider it business as usual here :) --UserEmilyDiehlStar.gif Emily Diehl (talk) 18:38, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Hello again, everyone. I just wanted to let you know that we'll be revising this clause to make it more clear that the wikis are exempt from this rule. Until we get the chance to do that, don't worry about contributing. You're not in violation of anything :) Thanks again for the sharp eyes on this one! --UserEmilyDiehlStar.gif Emily Diehl (talk) 22:59, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Quick! Someone put Jioruji's motto at the top of the Main Page before Anet revises the Rules of Conduct! Calor Talk 23:06, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Well, let's just wait and see what we are exempt of. As long as we don't get exempt from stuff like "You may not advertise the intent to or commit the act of buying, selling, trading, sharing, or transferring access to any Guild Wars account for real-world cash or for in-game gold or items."

HTTP 501/505 when trying to update nickname

I'm trying this out, but for some reason, it won't let me paste this into the Nickname field under my preferences. It just gives me a page saying "This page cannot be displayed," with an HTTP 501 error (page has not been implemented)/HTTP 505 error (version not supported). Could anyone let me know what I'm doing wrong? Here's the tag I'm trying to use:

"Charge!".jpg Tero t c

Thanks to anyone who can give me a hand. --Tero Gein 16:53, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Try closing the window and reloading the page completely new, maybe it works then. Otherwise wait some time or post it to Guild Wars Wiki:Report a wiki bug. poke | talk 16:55, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Be sure you have the "User raw signatures(without automatic link)" box checked--The Forsaken One 17:03, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
But that is not related to the server error.. poke | talk 17:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
oh, my bad--The Forsaken One 17:07, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
I've tried reloading the page, tried using different computers, and tried it with both the box checked and unchecked. Is it something with the coding that makes GWW freak out? Maybe the image can't be first or something? --Tero Gein 18:29, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
By the way, the wiki bug link is Guild Wars Wiki:Reporting wiki bugs. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 18:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Oh I just realized something, its unrelated to the errors but if you want to use the "Charge!" image as your sig image you will have to download the image then reupload it as "Image:User Tero Gein sig.jpg"--The Forsaken One 19:42, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
OK, I uploaded my own version of the "Charge!" image, and tried it again with no luck. (just to see if that was the problem) I also reported this on the website that Brains12 refered me to. Thanks everyone for the help so far. I can't wait to get rid of this boring-looking signature! --Tero Gein 20:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Trying a different version of the coding to see if this works... File:Tero Gein Tero Gein Charge.jpg Tero t c
Nope... --Tero Gein 20:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I solved the problem, but at the expense of not being able to include my contributions into my sig. (not that there are many) Oh well, it's still better than that plain, blue text... --File:Tero Gein Tero Gein Charge.jpg Tero talk 21:13, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

This can sometimes happen if try to include 'odd' things in the text you upload. Can you paste it here? Backsword 09:10, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Changing nick font

I was just wondering, is there a list somewhere of available fonts that I can use on the wiki? Thanks. --File:Tero Gein sig.jpg Tero talk 23:11, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Almost any font you can think of works on the wiki. Calor Talk 23:37, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
actually, if you go through the font list for example in ms word, there's only few that work here. i needed some time til i found kartika works. - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 00:16, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Guild Wars Wiki:Sign your comments is a little iffy on different font families because some people might not have them installed. If you do want your font changed, go for a common one that everyone is likely to have. --User Brains12 Spiral.png Brains12 \ Talk 00:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
For instance, Eloc's talk and contribs links don't appear on some of my computers -elviondale (tahlk) 01:11, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Gotcha...thanks for the help. I think I found something in MS Word (it works on mine), but I don't know if everyone will have it. Oh well, I'll keep it this way for now I guess. --File:Tero Gein sig.jpg TERO talk 04:04, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
Generally, it's best to pick popular/default fonts, simply because there's less of a chance that someone won't have it. I think the number of fonts you can use is pretty gigantic, but like elviondale or Brains pointed out, some users might not have those fonts, and thus see a blank space instead of a signature.
I was trying to dig up something I read before on the subject; you can set multiple fonts I believe, so if one doesn't work, it'll use the next one instead, etc... that way, if a user doesn't have "One Stroke Script LET", they'll see something like "Times New Roman" instead, or whatever you choose.
...hmm... and on that note, I don't have One Stroke Script LET. But since I'm on Firefox, I'm seeing a different font instead, so it's no problem. --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 04:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't think Firefox makes a difference, aren't all unknown fonts just replaced with a known one, everywhere? :P - anja talk 09:07, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
I think some browsers/operating systems just won't show it at all, which is why I mentioned it. :D --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 09:11, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

br

is it possible to increase the height of a <br /> (2nd question! woo) - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 19:05, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

You mean, widen the break between

two lines of text? <br> always does no more then one line of text, but don't forget you can use multiples. --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 21:58, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
yes, that's exactly what i meant. and i'm looking for a way around using so many breaks... - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page
You could instead put margins after/before your paragraphs:
<p style="margin-top: 50px; margin-bottom: 100px">Stuff here</p>
The above code would create a paragraph with the text "stuff here" that has 50 pixels of blank space above it and 100 pixels of blank space below it. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 22:44, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
hmm, right, didn't think about that since i don't use paragraphs usually. thanks ^^ - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 22:46, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Yeah... br is not to be used to format text or the spacing of such. Just general coding guidelines -elviondale (tahlk) 11:43, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Userbox template

I knew that, but how can I make it a template? --Horsedrowner 08:09, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Just save it as a page and use it for inclusion. Save your userbox as "Guild:Your Guild Name/Userbox". Then on pages where you want it, just do {{Guild:Your Guild Name/Userbox}} -- ab.er.rant User Ab.er.rant Sig.png 08:18, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

{{CURRENTTIME}}

Anyway to make the CURRENTTIME template use a different time zone and not use military time? Also, why doesn't the time auto update itself? — Eloc 20:49, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

Since MediaWiki "compiles" (caches) the pages when it is invalidated — such as when a template in use on the page is updated, or when you're editing the page in question — {{CURRENTTIME}} can only be updated when said cache is invalidated. Also, the only way to make it use another time zone is by using {{#time:}}. To add 5 hours to {{CURRENTTIME}}, try: {{ #time: H:i, j F Y | +5 hours}} for 11:47, 5 November 2024 — Galil Talk page 00:26, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
How do I get it off of military time? — Eloc 23:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Meh. I thought when you said "military time" you were refering to the timezone, but wikipedia just taught me that it's a synonym for 24-hour clock in australia, canada and the US.
  • {{ #time: h:ia, j F Y | +5 hours}} = 11:47am, 5 November 2024
  • {{ #time: h:iA, j F Y | +5 hours}} = 11:47AM, 5 November 2024

Guildwiki vs Official Wiki

Is there / can there be a brief page dedicated to the differences (policies, images, major category/template changes, general overall feel, etc) between Guildwiki and this one? The sentiment over there seems to be "at least this isn't GWW" and I'd just like to know what all that entails. I have my own opinion, but I'd like to know what I'm getting into before I "switch" to this one. ;) -- Peej 12:39, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

a) there are no ads b)really, no ads at all c)belive it, no ads d)there are no or only few people saying "at least we're not on guildwiki" or "guildwiki sucks" e)unlike gw, gww is mature f)gww is making way more progress than gwiki, because it's, well, official, so people know about it. of course that also means more noobs, maybe (haven't checked that on gwiki for some months). oh, btw, i don't think there will be a page for that since it's actually everyone's own job to get to know both wikis and decide which one they prefer ^^ - Y0_ich_halt Have a look at my page 14:52, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
GuildWiki doesn't have nearly as complicated policies, while GWW tends to be a little cleaner as a result. On the other hand, policies here occasionally get in the way of enforcing them, while GuildWiki gives a lot of freedom to it's admins. GuildWiki; friendly userbase (more or less). GWW; bigger userbase (still friendly as well, of course). Biggest factor is the Wikia deal at the moment, I'd say... if that doesn't actually bother you, then simply edit the one that seems easier for you. (or both.) --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 16:38, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
I think the biggest pros for GWW are that it is supported from official site, so we get contents/information directly from the developers, and that most really active GuildWiki-contributors switched to GWW so that they do not contribute on GW any longer (or at least very less).
And, Y0, I think you missed the missing ads on GWW. poke | talk 17:20, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
I don't think there should be a page detailing the differences, since we should not define ourselves based on how we are different, but based on what we are (which can be observed by digging in and giving it a go). Also, the subject is bound to bring up touchy feelings from people who believe one is "better" than the other. You're much better off reading the relevant policy settings on both, and giving both a try. In all fairness, there's also INC wiki. ;) Biscuits User Biscuits sig.png 17:54, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

I'd say one of the major letdowns of guildwiki is the fact that Recent Changes is now usually cluttered with user talk changes, by those people they call sysops. This could be considered a good thing, ofcourse, but I don't like it. -- Mini Me talk 18:22, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

GuildWiki is what happens after a wiki is corrupted by me; I'm still in the process of corrupting this one.

More seriously, GuildWiki is dying -- many or most of the prolific editors who didn't leave after I wiped the builds left after Gravewit sold us out to Wikia. Its community now is a hollow shell of what it once was.

I'm cripplingly biased, though, so my comments are irrelevant.

Tanaric 07:38, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

My take on the differences are that GWW has a much more active user base as far as adding content. Thus our content is now MUCH more complete and accurate than GuildWiki. They have some areas that have not been updated since Factions. This combined with the previously mentioned direct support from Anet makes GWW the most up to date Guild Wars wiki going. So in terms of game documentation I feel that GWW is hands down the best source, but I agree that as far as differences in policy and how policy affects the community, you should just try both and decide for yourself. --Go to Wynthyst's Talk page Wynthyst 15:37, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
I wouldn't venture to say that GWW is "MUCH" MUCH more complete and accurate than GuildWiki. It's only in certain areas, and we're still losing out on other areas (especially the older stuff that very few people play now). I would rather think that at the moment, both wikis complement each other. -- ab.er.rant User Ab.er.rant Sig.png 17:18, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Images to Userspace Skills

So, how do I get a picture, to go on my user space.. That works with the skills template picture? Halogod35 01:03, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

The problem is that Halogod is using the skill infobox template for his fake (and amusing!) skills on his userpage. That specific template calls for an image in the mainspace, which unfortunately won't be able to include user images. I have no idea how to help, but that's what's happening. MiraLantis 01:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
{{User skill infobox}}. Calor Talk 01:12, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Interesting, why must the user name be on there? Halogod35 01:20, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Calor! I think what you're asking, Halogod, is that why must a user image include the username? That makes it so that we're all able to upload our images with whatever names we like, that won't interfere with the documentation of a game (the purpose of the wiki). So like, if I wanted to upload the picture "I am the greatest ever.jpg," and then Calor wanted to upload another picture also called "I am the greatest ever.jpg," there would be a problem. Then, all of the sudden, there's a new skill added to the game, a shout called "I am the greatest ever!" and someone wants to upload the skill icon/whatever for that skill... get what I mean? The policy on naming makes it so that there aren't conflicts. It's confusing, but once you get the hang of it... well once I got the hang of it... I realized it was a good idea. (P.S., I'm just a regular wiki user like you, so people correct me if I'm wrong ;P) MiraLantis 01:26, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
I know that, I meant on the user box template... or is that what you just answered? Halogod35 01:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Looks like it. It's at least what Cursed Angel is doing. Maybe ask him? MiraLantis 01:33, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

--TalkPeople of Antioch 22:26, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

I think the part that makes it centered is the margin: 10px auto;. Setting the margin as auto should have that effect, and removing the margin statement seems to help. - anja talk 22:53, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Also, maybe enclosing the tables into a <p align=left></p>?--Fighterdoken 00:10, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

hmm... perhaps try adding "align" codes to the boxes?
{| align="left"
|-
|
|}
I'm not entirely sure if that will work for stacking them side-by-side, unless you have one aligned "right" and the other "left". I think if you set two of them to align "left", and make sure there's no extra linebreaks between them, they should stack as well. For example:
{| align="left"
|-
| Far Left table
|}
{| align="left"
|-
| Near Left table
|}
It might take some fiddling around, but they should work on the same line. Don't forget, if one's too wide, they'll automatically linebreak themselves to fit, so you might need to manually set a maximum width so they'll fit properly. --User Jioruji Derako logo.png Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 07:45, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

That template uses DPL so you can't use it directly. You'll have to manually code up the table. You can try looking at other tables around the wiki on how the code works and you can also look at the help on tables. -- ab.er.rant User Ab.er.rant Sig.png 10:36, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

While fixing a suggestion page thatt had it's data dumped (mine) I accidentally made the page User:Done25/Done25's Discussion. How do I get rid of it? Done25 22:48, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Tag it for deletion (just put a {{delete}} template on it) and a sysop will remove it for you. Go to Aiiane's Talk page (Aiiane - talk - contribs) 23:11, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Guild Cape Image

I've tryed to update my guild cape, but I've had little success. The Guild is The Goonies, please help :). thanks --Meltdown U S N 02:19, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Go here and upload the new version from your computer. Make sure you're uploading the version you want (after clicking browse, when you find the image, you can right-click it and hit preview before clicking the Open button). ¬ Wizårdbõÿ777(talk) 02:25, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
It'd be helpful if you actually try to explain what sort of trouble you're having instead of a generic "little success". -- ab.er.rant User Ab.er.rant Sig.png 02:44, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
If you are talking about the in-game cape, remember that it is the job of the Guild Leader. If you were trying to change the cape for your guild's wiki article, you need to wait a few minutes (or a couple of hours even) for the changes to be shown.--Fighterdoken 05:40, 9 April 2008 (UTC)


Uploading picture

I have uploaded a picture onto the wiki, but I am unsure of how to put it on a page. Please help! --Burning Freebies 13:57, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

To add a picture to the page, simply add [[Image:(your image name).jpg]] to the page where you wish the image to appear.--Go to Wynthyst's Talk page Wynthyst 14:06, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
I added a pretty detailed answer on the user's talk page, fyi. — THARKUN User Tharkun sig.png 14:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
